The regional office of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) at Hyderabad was vandalised on Tuesday, by six students from Osmania University.

The Gandhi Nagar police have reportedly registered criminal cases against six OU students, who entered the office on Tuesday afternoon, and damaged furniture, as the board had not cleared Telugu film 'Sharanam Gachchami'.

“Based on a complaint lodged by the CBFC office representative Pradeep Thakur, we have registered a case against the accused under the Prevention of Damage to Public Property (PDP) Act and sections 448, 427 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code," Gandhi Nagar sub-inspector (SI) Gopi Kiran Reddy told the Times of India.
